292 Module 134: Basic Access Control | Configuring Access Levels
Configuring Access Levels
Access Levels are used to control what users can do, where they can go, and when they can do these things.
They determine the doors, areas, elevator floors and menu groups a user has access to.
The tidiest way to define this access is using groups.
Door Groups
Navigate to Groups | Door Groups. You will see a default door group called All Doors. This is created by the
system and cannot be deleted or changed.
Whenever a new door is created, it will be added to the All Doors door group automatically. Because of this,
use of the All Doors door group should be used with caution. An example of where this would be a problem
would be at a research institute dealing with dangerous substances. If a new door was created in the system
that controls access to a biohazard area, anyone with the All Doors door group would automatically have
access to this door.
In the case of our Acme scenario, it is acceptable for our Installer to have this group assigned.
